Local Pet Store, TeaCup Puppies and
Boutique offers $5000 reward for Stolen Puppies
Hollywood, FL- Hollywood police are looking for a person who stole
two coveted toy-breed Chihuahuas, also known as Teacup Chihuahuas, after
breaking into the exclusive Teacups Puppies and Boutique on Saturday. The search has been going on five days and we
are worried about the health and well-being of our two babies. That's why we have decided to offer a $5000
reward for information leading to the recovery of the puppies.
The surveillance video shows the
suspect forcing entry, stealing puppies and in the melee, dropping several
puppies which led to injuries which the puppies are recovering from. The suspect was wearing a black hooded
sweatshirt, baggy denim shorts and sneakers.
The robber ''tried to take eight
toy-breed Chihuahuas,
but ended up with only two and left others scared and injured,'' said Eleonora
Bonfini, the owner of the boutique.
The missing pets are valued at
$1,500 each. Bonfini is concerned about their well-being. 'Because of their
size, they are prone to hypoglycemia and they most likely need medical attention," says Bonfini.
Ironically, on Monday August 14th,
Teacup Puppies and Boutiques was set to beginning moving their puppies to 9003 Taft St in Pembroke
Pines because they are merging with Pets Are People, Too, a 6000 square foot
facility in which the puppies will have more room. Instead Eleonora Bonfini
called the movers on Saturday August 12th and rescheduled the move
for that very afternoon.
"Pets are People, Too is a bigger
location with 6000 square feet, and is a better environment for the puppies
because of its bigger size," says Bonfini. "We will still keep the Teacup
Puppies location at 3180 Sterling
Rd in Hollywood
open but as an outlet for pet clothing and accessories."
The boutique, located at 3180 Stirling Rd.,
sells luxurious items such as a limited-edition puppy frock with Swarovski
crystals. The new location will be at Pets People Too located at 9003 Taft Street Pembroke
Pines, FL. For more
